Aung San Suu Kyi spends another birthday under house arrest

A lone man who staged a protest in Burma’s main city of Rangoon was detained by police today as pro-democracy leader Aung San Suu Kyi marked her 61st birthday, alone and under house arrest by the military government.

The military beefed up security outside the barricaded home of Suu Kyi, leader of the National League for Democracy and the 1991 Nobel Peace Prize laureate.
